Wine Tastings for Nerds and Newbies
Fun, casual wine tastings in Edmonton and beyond
A That Wine Nerd tasting combines storytelling, jokes, and exploring new-to-you wines for the ultimate hang out.
Cozy vibes, entertainment in the form of riffing on French wine law, and the freedom to wander around chatting with friends. Now that’s a party we can all get behind.
We’ve all been to the Official Biannual Restaurant Gathering, trapped in a tight squeeze between your chair and the next table, talking to the two people you happened to sit next to. There might be twelve of you (and good luck managing those RSVPs), but you can’t hear anyone else anyway.
Do something different this time.
In your home, at your venue, or virtually, your custom tasting brings folks together without the hassle and pressure. That Wine Nerd - Jill, hi! - will manage the to-do list. All that’s left for you to do is send the invites and pick out your outfit. (Sweatpants encouraged.)
Juuust enough structure to have something fun to do and talk about, but casual enough that you can mix and mingle with your people.
And next time you go to the liquor store, you won’t have to guess what might taste good. You’ll have a new list of faves, so you’ll spend your money on something you know you like.
Let’s get something going. Check out your options below!

Meet That Wine Nerd
Hi! I’m Jill Scheyk, and I’ve been doing wine tastings in my hometown of Edmonton, Alberta for five glorious years.
I have way too much education in wine (WSET Level 3, baby! Working on my Diploma level) but I’m deeply unserious. I love telling stories about wine shenanigans - and there’s way more than you’d think.
I can’t wait to craft a tasting just for you.
